No MTA would look into the RFC 822 headers except to check for MIME
compliance (and maybe to add a Message-ID header). But if you are
talking of envelope sender, then ALL MTAs I know of have some mechanism
of blocking based on it. Its just a question of reading the docs.

To block based on RFC 822 From: header, you could have written a milter
if you were using sendmail. There apparently is a similar mechanism in
postfix as well - you might want to investigate that (there was a recent
thread here on the milter v/s postfix issue).
